5 foot 4 in cm
5′4″ = 162.6 cm = 1.626 m = 64 inches
Working: (5 × 12 + 4) × 2.54 = 162.56
5 feet 4 inches is 162.6 centimetres, or 1.626 metres.
Convert in two steps. Turn the height into inches first — 5 × 12 = 60, plus 4 gives 64 inches. Then multiply by 2.54, since one inch is defined as exactly 2.54 cm: 64 × 2.54 = 162.56 cm.
Unlike the reverse conversion, this direction is exact: feet and inches are whole numbers and the factor is exact, so 5′4″ is precisely 162.56 cm with no rounding involved. Rounded for a form that wants whole centimetres, it is 163 cm.
Five foot four is close to the average adult female height in the United States, which makes it one of the most frequently converted values on this side of the family. It is also roughly where clothing sizing crosses from petite to standard, so it turns up in size guides as a boundary rather than as a measurement in its own right.
